Share on:

The Minister of Health, Adonis Georgiadis, made a post regarding the current developments in Venezuela, drawing a historical analogy with Greece during the dictatorship period. Specifically, he compared the images on the streets of Venezuela to Greece in 1973.

Mr. Georgiadis, through his post, commented on the moments circulating online, arguing that the celebrations resemble Greece before the fall of the Junta. He also raised the question of what would have happened if the United States had intervened after the Polytechnic events, arresting Georgios Papadopoulos.

The minister wondered if, in such a case, there would be voices denouncing a violation of International Law and demanding the return of the dictator, hinting at those who criticize the developments in Venezuela.

In closing, Adonis Georgiadis stressed the need to let the people of Venezuela enjoy their "first moments of freedom," wishing them a "great, bright democratic future."
